Stagg, John, Jr. (1758-1803)
Autograph letter signed
Title: to Henry Knox
Relays information he received from General [Anthony] Wayne, Colonel [Thomas] Butler, and Major [Isaac] Craig. Notes Butler reports the outposts are amply supplied with provisions and assures the officers and men have made great exertion putting the fort (possibly Fort Fayette) in order. Notes there have been recent successes in France (possibly referring to the French Revolution). The events taken place at the fort are likely related to the Whiskey Rebellion.
